I have some changes I made for 5.2 compatibility here:
http://code.matthewwild.co.uk/squish/shortlog/7d6070e5a096

Ah, great. I didn't find those. Finally a chance to learn some Mercurial... 

The main reason it's not released yet is lack of testing, and I didn't
even begin with 5.3 yet. I'd be glad of testing and any contributions
you can make in that area!

I just ripped out the module stuff and replaced it with some requires. I'll contact you through you're site. 

Thanks!

Most of my projects, being related to Prosody, have been hanging back
on 5.1. Now that Prosody does 5.2 though, I'll gradually be moving
them over. The bump to 5.3 should be fairly straightforward in
comparison, though we need to assess the risk of issues related to
assumptions about integer/float arithmetic in the code.
